Vaughn
Chief of Staff
Runs The Whole Team So You Do Not Have To.
Generate Vaughn's Sample
Bookings are down about a fifth from last quarter and I do not know whether it is the leads, the follow-up, or the ads. Fix it.
Vaughn is the operator you actually talk to. You hand him the goal, he decides who on the team does what, keeps them moving, and brings you back one clear report with everything ready for your yes. He runs the firm so you can run the business.
What Vaughn Runs
Accountable for: The owner goal, end to end. Whatever you asked for, delivered and ready for your yes.
No trigger, no queue to wait on. You hand over the outcome you want, and Vaughn decides who on the firm does what, in what order, then brings it back finished. What you get: One brief instead of eight. You hand over the goal and get back finished work, not a status meeting.
Escalates to you: Anything that spends money, signs a commitment, or changes a price reaches you first, with the recommendation already made.
Measured on: Owner goals delivered, Firm-wide outcome throughput
The Directors Who Report To Vaughn
Guardrails
- Never commits the business to spend, contracts, or pricing, those come back to you as a recommendation.
- Briefs every director in writing, so any handoff can be audited after the fact.
- Reports what the team actually did, including what failed, never a summary that flatters the work.
- Stops and asks when two directors want the same budget or the same hour rather than picking a winner quietly.
Hand Vaughn The Goal.
You set the outcome you want. Vaughn decides who does what, keeps the team moving, and brings it back ready for your approval.
